Chapter 443 Jia Heng: Big Sister, what is wronged? What is wronged
?
In the dark courtyard and the study in the east wing, the dusk and twilight filtered down, invaded the door, and faintly submerged an old figure, so the lights were on in the study.
Jia She was sitting on the chair of the Grand Master. After listening to Mrs.
I still don’t believe her, I just let her make her own decisions."
At this time, Jia Lian was also in the study and whispered: "Master, I heard that Yuanyang's father, Jin Cai, is looking at a house in Jinling. I'm afraid that he won't be able to make it. Her mother is also deaf in one ear, so...
Not a big deal."
When Jia She heard this, he couldn't help but feel more and more irritable. He glanced at Jia Lian and shouted coldly: "How do you know so clearly?"
Jia Lian's neck shrank, how could he dare to respond? Could it be that not only his father, he was also thinking about the pretty maid in the old lady's room, who was tall, straight-nosed, and especially had a cheerful temperament.
Jia She's face was gloomy, he turned to look at Mrs.
Tell her to rest early, I don’t want her, who dares to want her?!"
At the end of his words, his voice and look were both stern.
Mrs. Xing's expression changed and she could only respond calmly.
But when Jia Lian heard Jia She mentioning him, his face turned sullen. He didn't want to leave for a while, nor did he not leave.
"What did the second girl say?" Jia She suddenly thought of the Spring Festival and asked hurriedly.
Mrs.
Jia She's face softened a bit and he said: "Second girl has always been obedient, but what about Sun Shaozu? Lian'er, if you haven't been getting closer to him recently, what does he mean?"
Seeing this, Mrs.
"Sun Shaozu was very happy. He was talking about becoming a son-in-law with me." Jia Lian was handsome, with a smile on his fair face and a faint twinkle in his peach blossom eyes.
Secretly, it would be cheaper for them to smuggle northward once they were related.
Jia She smiled and said, "Then let him bring you another twenty thousand taels of silver so that you can buy a dowry for your sister."
After hearing this, Mrs. Xing couldn't help but take another look at Jia She.
Dowry has always been the capital of the mother's family for the married daughter to establish herself in her husband's family, and the elder can't afford even a tael of silver.
Jia Lian frowned, hesitated, and said, "With so much money, I'm afraid I won't be able to raise it for a while."
Twenty thousand taels of silver is not a small amount, even if he helps to borrow it, it will not be enough in a short while.
Jia She picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip, and said with a chuckle: "Then don't hurry up and make a marriage decision. We'll wait until he raises the money."
"Don't worry, sir, the Sun family will definitely find ways to raise funds." Jia Lian complained secretly in his heart, so he had to help first.
While Jia She and Jia Lian were talking, suddenly a servant from outside broke into the hall and said, "Master, Lin Zhixiao is here."
Jia She cursed: "This old bastard, what is he doing here now?"
Not long after, Lin Zhixiao, led by his servant, entered the side room, looked at Jia She, frowned and said, "Master, the old lady just sent a message, asking the master to kneel in the ancestral hall."
Jia She: "???"
His face darkened for a moment, and when he realized it, it was Yuanyang, that cheap maid, who must have complained about Diao Zhuang!
Lin Zhixiao sighed and said: "Sir, that mandarin duck is the person the old lady is waiting for. How can I... oh..."
After all, there is a difference between a master and a servant. Even though Lin Zhixiao was an old servant, he didn't say much. He just let out a long sigh, then, without staying any longer, he bowed his hands to Jia She and left.
"Click..."
Jia She threw the tea cup on the table to the ground. His facial features were almost distorted because of his anger, and he said angrily: "Kneel down at the ancestral hall, kneel down at the ancestral hall!"
Jia Lian's expression changed slightly and he was so frightened that he dared not express his anger, while Mrs. Xing also lowered her head and said nothing.
Not mentioning how furious Jia She was, he said that Jia Heng returned from Jinyi Mansion and went straight to Jinyang Princess Mansion, intending to bring Yuanchun back.
Because tomorrow is Baochai's birthday, Yuanchun had promised to come back to help his cousin celebrate her birthday.
In the study room of Princess Jinyang's Mansion, it was in the evening, and the gorgeous rays of light dyed the sky red. It came down from the high green walls and fell into the pavilion, turning the heads of the two little ones with their eyebrows on their faces.
The beautiful woman is reflected in the majestic glow.
Yuanchun was wearing a light yellow folded embroidered cross-collared coat and a plain plum blossom embroidered dress. He was talking to the eldest princess of Jinyang across a lacquered wood table.
Princess Jinyang's curled up temples, with slender eyebrows and slender eyes, looked at the plump-faced girl opposite her, and she felt a little fond of her appearance and personality. She smiled and said, "You are gentle and virtuous.
Gong also seems to like it and will find a good home for you in the future."
Yuanchun's jade face was flushed, her head slightly lowered, her eyes lingering on the tea cup on the small table, and she said softly: "Your Highness is joking."
The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled and joked: "As a female official in the palace, you are well-informed. You shouldn't be so coy."
I don’t know why, looking at the beautiful and delicate appearance of the young girl, I always want to be funny, and I don’t know if I was led astray by that person.
Yuan Chun's heart skipped a beat when he was told that. The beauty with a sweet smile reflected in her bright and clear eyes, and the unforgettable scene reappeared in his heart. The beauty pouted her lips, letting Brother Heng bully her, calling Brother Heng in her mouth...
Her beautiful eyebrows furrowed, her panicked gaze lowered, her cheeks slightly hot, and she whispered: "Brother Heng...he said he was taking care of my affairs."
"Oh? What did he say then?" Princess Jinyang asked with great interest.
Yuan Chun said softly: "Brother Heng said that my marriage fell on him."
Princess Jinyang: "???"
After being stunned for a moment, he finally came to his senses and suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart. What do you mean by "the marriage fell on him?", and what exactly was the intention behind these words?
This kind of doubtful thoughts did not last long. At this time, a maid came from outside and whispered: "Your Highness, Governor Jia is here."
The eldest princess of Jinyang showed a bright smile on her beautiful face and said: "I was talking about him just now, and he is here to take you back."
Yuanchun raised his beady face and couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
After a while, Jia Heng followed the maid into the study, glanced at Princess Jinyang, looked at Yuan Chun, and said warmly: "Sister, come back with me."
Yuan Chun Yingying stood up, responded, and saluted Princess Jinyang: "Your Highness, Brother Heng and I will go back first."
The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled and said: "Don't worry about it for a while, I still have a few words to say to Ziyu."
Jia Heng nodded and said, "I also have something to say to His Highness."
Yuanchun: "..."
"Brother Heng, let me pack my things first." Yuan Chun's cheeks were slightly red, and his skin was dizzy. He bit his lips with his teeth, glanced at Princess Jinyang, and sighed quietly in his heart.
Jia Heng nodded and watched Yuan Chun leave.
The eldest princess of Jinyang stepped forward, picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Jia Heng. She said in a soft voice: "The emperor's sister-in-law suddenly wants to take the Wang family off the list for some reason."
"It was King Wei and I who occasionally mentioned it." Jia Heng took the tea cup and took a sip. When he raised his eyes, his eyes fell into a snow-white ravine. He stood up with difficulty, pulled away, and whispered: "Pour
I didn’t expect him to be so...cooperative."
It's hard for him to say that he is a dog licker.
"I tell you why the emperor's sister-in-law suddenly changed her mind." Princess Jinyang sat not far away again, looking at Jia Heng with her beautiful watery eyes, she said suddenly, stretched out her slender hand, picked up the tea cup, and said:
"He has just opened his mansion and is in the Five Cities Military and Horse Department. Naturally, he wants to do his best to win your appreciation."
Jia Heng was noncommittal and said: "King Zhongshun, please wait for a while and we will soon have some clues."
Princess Jinyang's phoenix eyes sparkled and she asked: "That case?"
Jia Heng gently put down the tea cup and said slowly: "There are many implications in this case, and I'm afraid it will take a big prison to stop it."
This was also where he had some doubts. If the Imperial Mausoleum case occurred, Long Yan would be furious and the government and the public would be shocked. Would this go against Emperor Chongping's purpose of maintaining balance in the government?
However, in order to refresh the official system and clarify the world, we cannot look forward and backward. From the perspective of observing the movements in the capital, the emperor's intention is still more serious.
"Xing Da Prison, what do you mean?" Princess Jinyang asked with a frown.
Jia Heng said with a faint look on his face: "At present, there are two departments of household workers and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there are many officials involved in the case. They are intertwined. Once the case occurs, pulling out the carrots and bringing out the mud seems to be in line with the purpose of rectifying the administration of officials."
Princess Jinyang's phoenix eyes were filled with coldness, and she said coldly: "That's just right to catch them all in one go."
"Li'er, don't be so cruel and make people..." Jia Heng took the beauty's jade hand and hugged the warm and fragrant soft jade body into his arms, feeling the plump touch spread out between the palms and fingers.
The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled, turned her eyes to the young man's face, and said softly: "You promised me what you promised me, but you haven't done it yet?"
Jia Heng said in surprise: "Aren't you doing it now? We are collecting evidence, please be patient."
"That's not it. You said... you want to serve me." Princess Jinyang's eyebrows were raised, her beautiful eyes were condensed, her teeth were biting her red lips, and she said softly.
Jia Heng's expression paused slightly, he thought for a moment and said, "How about... let's do it another day."
Princess Jinyang's cheeks were as hot as fire and she said, "As long as you remember it, it doesn't matter which day it is."
Jia Heng smiled to himself, but remembered that Jinyang probably didn't quite understand.
These were not important. The two of them chatted for a while, and Jia Heng didn't wait too long. He got on the carriage and returned to Ningguo Mansion.
It was already dark, the lights were on, and the spring breeze of the first month blew into the carriage through the bamboo curtains, giving it a slight chill.
In the carriage, Jia Heng looked at the girl sitting quietly and elegantly beside him and said with a smile: "What did eldest sister say to His Highness Jinyang earlier?"
Yuanchun folded his hands in front of him, smelling the faint fragrance that was so close at hand. Quan pretended not to smell it and whispered softly: "I didn't say anything, Brother Heng, there's nothing at home these days."
Something happened."
"Recently, the Beijing Police Department is in full swing, and the personnel of the Ministry of Industry will be adjusted. The second master has been worried about this matter. He was still talking about it at noon..." Jia Heng briefly recounted the incident.
After these Yuanchun returns, he will also listen to Mrs. Wang's advice. It is better for him to inform Yuanchun in advance.
Yuan Chun frowned slightly and asked worriedly: "What about father... what is Brother Heng's plan?"
Jia Heng looked at Yuan Chun and said warmly: "Don't worry, eldest sister, I have a plan."
Yuan Chun Wanli's eyebrows showed softness, and she said softly: "It's good that Brother Heng is aware of it. I trust Brother Heng."
After what happened before, she believed that he would always have a way.
Jia Heng didn't say anything else. He closed his eyes and meditated while the carriage turned. Only the light from the lanterns and candles on both sides came through the bamboo curtains. Sometimes bright and sometimes dark lights flickered on his face one after another, becoming increasingly gloomy.
Yuanchun's face was calm, but he peeked at the young man from time to time, noticing the "tired" look between his resolute eyebrows, his cherry lips twitching, and the look of pity in his eyes. Finally, he couldn't hold it back, and whispered softly.
: "Brother Heng, from now on...you should take more care of your body."
Jia Heng: "???"
He opened his eyes and looked at the girl opposite, with a look of confusion on his face.
However, Yuanchun was stared at by that doubtful gaze, and felt a little shy. His face, which was as white as snow, turned into a beautiful glow without realizing it. He turned his head away, picked up a cloth bag embroidered with lotus flowers, handed it over, and said in a trembling voice: "
Hengdi, these are some I searched for in the herbal medicine room the day before yesterday... Hengdi can usually use them to make tea."
She had been reading some medical books in the past few days. It was said that this product can nourish the kidneys and replenish deficiency. She was wondering how to give it to him, so she just gave it to him now.
Jia Heng stretched out his hand to take the cloth bag, and his fingertips touched the jade-like skin, which was as smooth as fat. He immediately separated it, picked up a round fruit, frowned, raised his eyes and asked: "Sister, what is this...
thing?"
In fact, there is a vague guess in my mind, but I am not sure yet.
"Wolfberry." Yuanchun's voice, which was soft as water in the past, has now become a bit trembling, and her plump face is as hot as fire. She is a woman who has not yet left the court, and she received the essence-tonifying medicine from her younger brother.
There is always something... shameless.
The so-called wolfberry has spines like thorns of wolfberry and stems like strips of wolfberry, so it is also named. It nourishes the kidneys, moistens the lungs and improves eyesight.
Jia Heng said "Oh" and suddenly felt enlightened. He pulled the red string on the bag, tied it up and said in a low voice: "Sister, I'm interested."
In fact, he has no need for these at all, but he might as well keep them, otherwise Yuanchun may be embarrassed when his good intentions are betrayed.
It's hard to say Yuanchun, Yunying's unmarried woman, how much pain does it take to overcome the shyness of a girl and give him such a thing?
Of course, Yuanchun came from the palace after all, so he was well-informed and would not be too coy.
When Yuan Chun saw Jia Heng's expression softened as usual, he softly said "Hmm". Although his heart was shy, there was also a surge of sweetness. He lowered his head and said no more. He just folded his hands in front of him and wrung his hands.
Moving the handkerchief, my mind is uncertain.
She originally thought he would ask why, but she didn't want to just accept it.
I'm interested...
Yuanchun pondered these words in his mind, thinking about their meaning.
Yes, Hengdi is so smart, he must have known that she was aware of his affair with the eldest princess of Jinyang.
Thinking about it like this, looking at the "haggard" face of the young man, I felt even more distressed, and said softly: "Brother Heng, if you feel aggrieved,... you can talk to me."
Jia Heng frowned, looked at Yuan Chun, and asked: "Sister, what grievance is it? What grievance is it?"
Now some monks are really confused and confused.
In fact, Jia Heng never expected that Yuan Chun would think up a handsome man trick of bending down to serve others for the sake of the clan. Who would have thought of this?
Xu Yuanchun thought that he had entered the palace for the Jia family since he was a child, in order to gain the honor of the imperial concubine, and thought that Jia Heng followed a similar path.
Yuan Chun's eyebrows were as gentle as water, her cheeks were flushed, she pursed her pink lips and said hurriedly: "It's nothing, it's just a lot of things at home that make Hengdi worry a lot, and not everyone can understand Hengdi's hard work. Now,
There is also my father’s matter, I think my family is very worried again.”
She shouldn't have revealed anything about the eldest princess of Jinyang.
Hearing this, Jia Heng paused and said, "Fortunately, it's nothing. Sister, don't worry about me."
Hearing this, Yuan Chun's beautiful face became more and more holy and maternal, and she said softly, "Brother Heng, if you have any troubles in the future, you can tell me about it. Tell me, and it may be better."
Jia Heng noticed the concern on Yuan Chun's face, smiled, and said with relief: "If there is anything, I must tell my eldest sister."
The girl in front of him has a kind heart and a soft temperament. Perhaps she saw that he had been "bothered" by family matters recently, and she wanted to be a close elder sister and provide some relief.
There seems to be a kind of personality that feels extremely satisfied when being needed and relied on - a Madonna-type personality?
But it seemed like he really had nothing to talk to Xun Yuanchun.
Yuan Chun nodded his head, and when he saw that warm smile, his heart gradually calmed down.
